Unusual Design. Extraordinary Aerobatic Performance.
What makes the KAVAN Twisty truly special is its innovative control system.
Instead of conventional ailerons, both wing halves move independently, providing exceptionally effective roll control. Combined with the fully movable horizontal tailplane, this design gives the model an incredibly agile and responsive character.
The result is a compact aerobatic glider capable of impressive manoeuvres, rapid changes of direction and exciting 3D-style flying.

-
KAVAN C2814-1400 brushless motor.
-
KAVAN R-20B Plus ESC.
-
7×6" folding propeller.
